  • Reminder about Holiday Potluck, December 16th from 11 AM – 1PM in the Carol Silvery Student Union in Hass-Darr Hall. Sign-ups to bring food and drinks were sent out in previous emails.
  • December Surprise! – For the month of December, jeans can be work ANY DAY of the week! This also means you can wear any shirt/sweater, as long as it is professional. Please ensure that you dress appropriately if you have any important meetings or events. This idea came from Chancellor Mulligan as a thank you for the hard work, dedication and focus everyone has shown the last few months.

    • Holiday Potluck – Planning on doing Holiday Trivia during the holiday potluck. Teams of 4.  No need to Pre-register or anything, just show up and compete! Special Gift Basket prizes from the Bookstore for the top team! Also, as a side note, we encourage everyone to wear your favorite festive sweaters/shirts and outfits! Bonus points from me for the ugliest sweater. 😊
    • Secret Grizzly – It has been so fun to see all the goodies going around campus for our Secret Grizzly event this year! This is a reminder that you will reveal yourself to your grizzly AT THE POTLUCK. Make plans to stop by and either give a final gift or just say hey to reveal yourself! Should be fun!
    • Holiday Trivia – We will be hosting a holiday trivia competition at the potluck on the 16th. Put together teams of 4 to come and test yourselves against the rest of campus on assorted holiday trivia! If you don’t have a team of 4, no worries! Show up and we’ll put you on a team! We also have a nice prize for the team who wins! Shoutout to the bookstore for a great prize basket! Picture attached.
